Is it up the m5 and across from Birmingham or along the m4 and up from reading?
Would say up the m4.Swindon,Oxford.M40 couple jncts and then a43 mate.
shortest route is M5, A40, A34, M40, A43
I’ve done this run myself but N’ton to Avonmouth, I’d go M4 to J15 Swindon, pick up the A420 to Oxford, then the A34 north, get on the M40 at J9, off at J10 onto the A43 to N’ton.
I’d go M4, A420, A34, M40, A43.
Cool, Swindon it is! Cheers

Theres a couple of speed cameras on the 420, easy to spot and i dont think they get the trucks but dont take my word it.

yes they do
I’ve been had by the one after Shrivenham, 48mph.
I would also go M4, A419, A420, A34, M40, A43.

They do…3 of ours got caught in one week…2 at Tubney Woods and 1 at Thrupp…
Ahh best be careful then lol… Only reason why i didnt think they get the lorries is because ive been through the first camera heading towards swindon where they’ve resurfaced it (so no lines) around 50 and it didnt go off.
I’ve gone past the forward facing ones truvelo? a few times at 50mph and not set them off, think I’II have to be more careful.
I would go Swindon too. VOSA at junction 15 turn left in the right hand lane when coming off to avoid getting pulled in.
No doubt this will turn into another thread with all the 40mph boys knocking those of us that want/need to crack on…

There isn’t a camera in the Swindon area that works. They were all turned off years ago!!
Thing about the A420 is you cross into Oxfordshire after the Shrivenham roundabout and those ■■■■■■■ flash all the time!! lol

Im talking about the one that is on the oxford side heading towards swindon where they’ve recently resurfaced it… Somewhere round there anyway, i know where i mean… just…
The Shrivenham one was one of the first in the country. I know loads of people who have been caught by it. Cars, bikes, trucks, It seems to be active nearly all the time.
SIGH
I sometimes wonder how people get on in life.
Personally I prefer
M5, a46, a45, m45, m1.
Depends where you’re going in Northampton, If its Sean valley j16, if brackmills j15 on m1
A420 is ok nothing wrong with Swindon Oxford route, but I enjoy the change of the 46. There’s not much in it.

Need ?
If you’re gonna do the A34, just get out and walk!
